CVE-2026-80986
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: bound the peer rkey counts in SMC-Rv2 LLC messages
On a link whose device has maxrecvsge == 1 there is no shared v2 receive
buffer, and smcllcsaveaddlink_rkeys() takes the v2 extension from 44
bytes past the start of the queue entry's inline message:
ext = (struct smcllcmsgaddlinkv2ext *)(llcmsg + SMCWRTXSIZE);
The entry is a 72-byte allocation and the extension starts at offset 68, so
ext->num_rkeys at offset 94 is already past it. This happens on every
SMC-Rv2 link addition, whatever the peer sends:
